Abstract :
A novel temporal optical phase conjugator based on intensity-only devices is presented. As proof-of-concept, wavelength-preserving conjugation of arbitrarily-chirped pulses and a 16-QAM signal is demonstrated using a photodetector and Mach-Zehnder modulator, avoiding all electronic-domain processing.
